Sounds like the 2018 turbo Mazda6 was developed to be a comfortable cruiser with passing power. That's not exactly a bad thing and I think would attract more buyers to the brand. Their decision to move upmarket or luxury is softening their cars. I'm still waiting for the 45-65 mph time from Motor Trend. That's really what matters to me, how fast can I pass that car in front of me. I don't think I even took my Speed3 up to 100 mph. Why would I? I just need to pass someone, not race. And I want to pass other cars as fast as I can.
